Selecting an object from a List

Question

Hi I have a list: public List Cars = new List (); I want to create a method which could select a Car object from the list and change it's properties. For example I want to rename the mileage. Car.mileage = 1000; How can I change the properties of the a Car inside a List? Thanks

hello Add a property in the Car class. Here is a brief example. public class Car { public Car() { // // TODO: Add constructor logic here // } public string Name{get ; set;} public string Brand { get; set; } public string Plate { get; set; } public int Mileage { get; set; } } Test car internal List CreateDummyCars() { List myCars = new List (); myCars.Add(new Car { Brand = Toyota Mileage = 10 Name = Toyota Plate = P1234 }); myCars.Add(new Car { Brand = BMW Mileage = 500 Name = BMW Plate = BMW1 }); myCars.Add(new Car { Brand = Honda Mileage = 10000 Name = Honda Plate = 112233 }); myCars.Add(new Car { Brand = Kia Mileage = 5678 Name = Kia Plate = Kia123 }); return myCars; } protected void Page_Load(object sender EventArgs e) { List cars = CreateDummyCars(); foreach (Car c in cars) { if (c.Plate == BMW1) //let say we want to change the mileage for the car with the plate # BMW1 { c.Mileage = 1000; } } }
